how do you store your needle treasures?

ever since i first started needlepointing, i've definitely been guilty of paying more attention to the beautiful canvases and wide array of fun threads. once a canvas was stitched, i would haphazardly throw it back into a plastic bag until it was time for finishing. as my stash has grown, so has the number of finished items. i really wanted to reorganize my nonexistent storage solutions for my finished items, and am really pleased with my new system!

wrapping up the finished nativity in the tissue, then keeping the set together in acid-free plastic bags for easy access

end result: everyone is securely tucked in and has their own place

i'm curious to see what everyone else does for storage solutions. i'm still fairly new (6+ years) to this world and am slowly working my way up to building my dream home office/needlepoint sanctuary. but until then, what's the best way to go about it?

I admire your commitment. I usually just toss my ornaments into a rubber mad bin and stick them in the basement. But right now, I don't have time to organize. We switched to waterproof rubbrrmade when some stuff of ruined while in paper boxes in the basement and got wet.
